Sadly, it turns out that Samsung decided against this feature due to concerns that it would increase the device's thickness. According to reports, the S Pen has advanced technology that could make a built-in option possible, but the company believes that the trade-off isn't worth it. One alternative would be to make a thinner pen, but this would compromise the writing experience and increase production costs.

A source familiar with the new foldable device revealed to ET News that incorporating the S Pen has become challenging due to changes in the hinge and internal space structure. It's disappointing to hear this news as I was hoping for the convenience of having an S Pen with the new foldable device. Nonetheless, I'm still excited to see what other features the device has to offer.
